[IBC] collecting
The least expensive way to go is buy a bale of Canadian peat and a couple of
50 lb. bags of builder's sand (coarse). Mix the 2 together at a 50-50 rate. Total cost, less than $15. Marty ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter K." To: Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 8:32 PM Subject: [IBC] collecting Is there anything wrong with using a good quality potting mix, maybe even one specifically made for trees and shrubs, for newly collected specimens? i'll be digging a few big guys this spring and i'm not sure if i can afford to buy enough supplies to make the necessary amounts of bonsai soil. The plants are getting ripped out if i don't dig them up so waiting longer isn't an option. thanks everybody. -- Peter Kulibert zone 4a/5b ************************************************** ************************** **** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Ken Rutledge++++ ************************************************** ************************** **** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
